As reported by the Napa Valley Register, Bo Barrett told the large crowd who had gathered for the memorial of his father, James L. Barrett, Napa Valley wine pioneer and owner/operator of Chateau Montelena Winery, Napa Valley from 1972 to March 2013:

“He had a hell of a ride. Let’s continue to live our lives like he did... All of you have a hell of a ride, too.”
